It's really hard to choose one.

Hi!

I am planning to buy a new horn.
I'm thinking about Bach 37Bb 180s or Yamaha 8335 RGS.
It's really hard to decide.

Help me.

Chinese..or Japanese.....

Really, buy the one you sound the best on.

In that price range don't overlook Getzen and Lawler also.

Re: It's really hard to choose one.

Well you are sure to get a lot of opinions since we thankfully we have a lot of choices these days! You mentioned the RGS but I wouldn't rule out the standard Xeno. When I went looking last time I ended up with a Lawler C7 but I tried the 8345RGS and 8345S. I liked the 8345S better. YMMV. If at all possible go out and try them before you buy. Lot's of the mail order places have trial periods too.

No interest in one of the great, American-made horns on which Yamaha based some of their more popular, original models? I'm speaking of Schilke here.

Try them - see what works for you, with you on the end, for the style of playing that you do.

Wait... let me play it for you... listen to that, c'mon... the choice is clear. You can't not choose with a horn like that, especially with this mouthpiece. You see what I'm saying, right?
